[cheers and applause] and today, today, as my call for a timeframe to remove our troops from iraq has been echoed by the iraqi government and even the bush administration, even after we learned that iraq has $79 billion in surplus while we are wallowing in deficit, john mccain stands alone in his stubborn refusal to end a misguided war. that's not the judgment we need. that won't keep america safe. we need a president who can face the threats of the future, not keep grasping at the ideas of the past. you don't defeat -- you don't defeat a terrorist network that operates in 80 countries by occupying iraq. you don't protect israel and deter iran just by talking tough in washington. you can't truly stand up for georgia when you've strained our oldest alliances. if john mccain wants to follow george bush with more tough talk and bad strategy, that is his choice, but that is not the change that america needs. [cheers and applause] we are the party of roosevelt. we are the party of kennedy. so don't tell me that democrats won't defend this country. don't tell me that democrats won't keep us

or why governor romney thinks it is a bad thing that the president ended the war in iraq, but let's stick to the central theme of the economy. we need to do more to get the economy back. we inherited the worst economy in 80 years from the republicans and we have been improving in over their objections and their obstruction. we would like to move quicker. when argument is that the republican nominee, because of his private business experience is a superior job creator. if we elect him president, he will use those private-sector skills to bring many more jobs. we have had an experiment in that. he was governor of the state i lived in. if his private sector experience makes him the super hero of job creation, we would have seen that in massachusetts. in fact, the record is that during his term, our job growth was only about 1.4%, a quarter of the national average. we were forty seventh in job growth. in fact, i represented an area in massachusetts proudly. it has been hurt by national economic trends. we want health to get the commuter rail for the northern part of the state. we want to get
